 The author had the advantage of working in a sparsely settled region 



whose geology and climatology were already pretty well known, 



and he made good use -of his opportunities. Two papers dealing 



with the forests of the same general region by the same author, 



published as bulletins of the U. S. Bureau of , Forestry in 1904, are 



also of considerable interest.

 The area discussed is comparable in many respects with the sand-hills 



of the Altamaha Grit region, and resembles most of them in being 



on the left side of the stream. Unfortunately no distinction is made 



by the author between native and introduced plants.
